Fics like Across the Universe

Sometimes you want something more than your towel to keep you warm at night. Arthur Dent and Ford Prefect have been best friends for years. Ever since his planet (literally) and life (figuratively) got blown up, Arthur has been searching the galaxy for a place he belongs. No matter where he goes, nothing quite fits. Meanwhile, Ford has been running for most of his life, never stopping long enough to get to know anyone. Well, except for those times he got stranded on a backwater planet and found someone worth taking with him. But no matter how fast he runs, he never quite finds what he is looking for. Given the chance to travel without the looming threat of being thrown out of an airlock or turned into a penguin, Arthur and Ford are discovering that they just might be looking for the same thing. Set vaguely after Mostly Harmless, but they are alive. Somewhat canon compliant to the books with the caveat that elements of other sources are picked and chosen at the author's whim.
